∙ 13y agoIn the past three decades serial killers have gone from almost complete obscurity to world-wide infamy thanks in part to charismatic killers like Ted Bundy or the quiet, polite midwestern cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer. But although these brutal kiillers do get more than their share of publicity, serial murder is still rare if compared to other crimes, including other types of murder.
It is estimated that appoximately %1 of the world's population are considered sociopathic. Of that %1 only a very small percentage will become serial killers. And although serial murder has gotten more common than at any other time in history, the chances of succumbing to a serial killer is still remote. The only exception to this is people that have 'high-risk' lifestyles such as prostitutes. And since the U.S. has the majority (%76) of serial killers the chances of being a victim will be slightly higher.
As more of these types of killers are apprehended*, the opportunity to study these individuals has never been better. With better understanding there is the hope that these individuals can be prevented from committing future crimes.
*With better crime scene analysis and improvements in other forensics and DNA it has become more difficult to evade capture.
